Nuclear Hurricanes of Astronomical Proportions

If one isn’t white, he’s black.
If one isn’t good, he’s evil.
To some, whites are blacks.
To others, blacks are whites.
A black isn’t gray, and neither is a white.
A gray mar on a white board cannot be erased to some.
A gray mar on a black board cannot be erased to others.
Neither the whites trust the blacks nor [...]

The Snow Falls, the Hair Drips, the Music Plays, and It Could Never Be Better

The past two days have been probably the happiest I have been for many, many, many months. Years. I’d definitely rate it up top. A fifteen out of ten. Why?
A. The weather.
B. Music.
C. Spirit.
As sung by West Jordan High School’s most world renowned Madrigals this wonderful Christmas season, Somewhere In My Memory contains the phrase [...]

Battery-Operated Clocks

If one goes into my room, one will notice that it is somewhat of an organized mess– a sign of what my mind is like. If one looks closer, one will notice that my World Atomic Clock and all of my analog clocks are either stopped or in time zones for New Zealand. I haven’t [...]

Dreams

As I’ve read, listened to, watched, and analyzed various artists’ works of literature, musical renditions, cinematographic works, and etcetera, I have come to usually find one of a few conclusions:
1. Something that can never be should happen
2. Something that is happening should stop
Both are worthy dreams, but both seem very unhopeful. The Lord of [...]

Take Ten: Junior Year

One of the classes I most look forward to is Kelly DeHaan’s Take Ten men’s audition choir.
I was speaking to one of my buddies, good old Reg, and he stated that orchestra was so much more advanced because they were required to learn how to read music to a tee.
But there is more [...]

Time

I watched the light in a hole in a door slowly move across a room and disappear once, and it made me think about how quickly time passes.
I will wake up in the morning, and before I know it, it is a memory. Time passes so quickly. It was only ten years ago that I [...]

Windows Live: Somewhat of a Savior?

I recently downloaded Windows Live on a whim. It has more features than I thought. I’ve yet to fiddle with Messenger, but it also comes with a blog writer… do you remember the wonderful days of Microsoft Office 2007 (trial version)? Well, this does it in a pinch… and it’s free. Oh, I’ll still be [...]

Bohemian Saint-Professing Soul

The soul of an unorthodox saint. Is it a saint? Perhaps it professes sainthood, but is really the most devilish of them all? Perhaps it is much alike unto certain priests of Catholic profession who claim to be nearest to God and who seem so on the outside, but inside they are so weighed down [...]

Walden: The Recess

Curses upon the Salt Lake County Library System!
Curses upon the Jordan School District!
I hadn’t the time to completely read Walden as I had planned and hoped to; I knew I wouldn’t have much time to read it because of my enslavement at the local Erebus extension, but I intended to renew the book. I was [...]

A Winter Eternal?

December 1st, 2007: Bringing the Christmas in with a beautiful snow. The Third Winter of metaphors ends, the Winter of reality unofficially begins.
We came come a long way since the Winter this year. There were several Winters, actually.
The first, immature and not normal. Quite orthodox– we are in no way orthodox and especially not with [...]
